Using Pythagorean's Theorem of a^2+b^2=c^2, with a and b being two legs and c being the hypotenuse.
 You can find that the leg(15) squared is 225. The hypotenuse(17) squared is 289.
289-225=64
The square root of 64 is 8
So the missing leg of the triangle has a length of 8 units.

Abyssal plains are large, flat features that cover about ________ of the planet.
spin [16.1K]

Abyssal plains are large, flat features that cover about one third of the planet.

<h3>What are Abyssal plains?</h3>
  • The broad, flat, sediment-covered regions of the deep ocean floor are known as abyssal plains.
  • They have a slope of less than one foot of height variation for every thousand feet of travel, making them the flattest, featureless places on Earth.
  • When tectonic plates separate, magma rises and forms new crust, filling the space that was left between the plates.
  • When sediments from the shoreline pass over the continental shelf, tumble down the continental slope, and deposit on top of the more recent oceanic crust, they create an abyssal plane.
